The Canon S5is is a bridge camera - so I been reading here someplace.

I am not sure what that means and what are the advantages/disadvantages?

Thanks :thumbup:

Basically an advanced P&S that allows manual settings. It's between a P&S and a DSLR.

What can I say? Its Monday and the question had already been properly answered by Snowbear so I decided a little humor was acceptable. It wasn't meant to offend.

I just bought an Olympus SP 810...a bridge camera.It is a good kind of camera to have if you can't quite afford the lenses just yet for your DSLR.And I carry it with me in my Jeep for grabbing shots in a hurry.
